Re: How can you smoothly connect two circles on different planes with a tube?
I think I've managed it with vanilla Onshape geometry, no FeatureScript. See https://cad.onshape.com/documents/bca273998578cc2603c134a3/w/4c4563f13cf1b97e498478d4/e/5026a0b792d398ad4e365a63?renderMode=0&uiState=66147d4854861d1b162225b7, from sketch 11 onward. However, it behaves a little strangely. I needed to break my… -
Re: How can you smoothly connect two circles on different planes with a tube?
Thanks @martin_kopplow, that is awesome! I was trying to find a way of getting Onshape to do the work via constraints, but got tripped up by only being able to constrain in 2 dimensions at a time, and not being able to constrain across sketches. I hadn't thought of using an assembly to constrain in 3 dimensions and then… -
Re: How can you smoothly connect two circles on different planes with a tube?
I've put a clean example (without all the random experiments) in the https://cad.onshape.com/documents/bca273998578cc2603c134a3/w/4c4563f13cf1b97e498478d4/e/5c7a16b4af3fc5de975969f6?renderMode=0&uiState=6615102754861d1b1623fee9 in the "Plain Geometry Example" part studio. I think the issue is that I've got the wrong arc on… -
Re: How can you smoothly connect two circles on different planes with a tube?
@martin_kopplow - I've replicated your first approach in https://cad.onshape.com/documents/bca273998578cc2603c134a3/w/4c4563f13cf1b97e498478d4/e/7d29d0407c7d1265d984296e. It works perfectly, even with a bend radius equal to the tube diameter (FYI @rick_randall ): I took a look at your second approach. With its 5 part…
